Sending a girl a snap can make you as nervous as talking to her in person. The first step to bonding is to add her on Snapchat and start writing them informally. Once you start hearing from each other regularly, you can continue the conversation by talking about your common interests, with comments, and more. Use features like filters to add variety, humor and creativity to your snaps.
Steps
Part 1 of 3: Creating a Bond
Step 1. Add the girl on Snapchat
Open the app and press the ghost icon at the top. In the menu that appears, select "Add friends". At this point, you can add it with your username, from your phone's address book (but you must already have its number) or with a special Snapchat code.
- If you don't have her username, phone number, or Snapchat code, you can always add her by finding her in a mutual friend's contact list.
- Don't follow her across multiple platforms, like Snapchat, Twitter, and Instagram on the same day. Doing so will make you seem too interested.
Step 2. Send her unpretentious snaps a couple of days after adding her
Wait a few days before sending her the first image. Contacting her right away will make you seem desperate. After your first swap, look for it once every two days, with photos of your dog eating snow, street performers, and the pile of math homework you need to do.
When you send her informal snaps regularly, she will start expecting your messages. This will naturally lead you to communicate more in the future
Step 3. Gradually increase your trading frequency
As you get to know her better, you will begin to hear from each other more often. Sending too many photos right away can turn her off, but if she keeps replying to you, she probably wants the conversation to continue.
Step 4. Customize the responses to the situation to make the conversation more natural
If she replies, let the dialogue develop as if you were standing in front of her in person. Ask her questions about the things she says to show you listen to her.
Use snaps to let her know what you like, what you do, and what things are most important to you
Step 5. Avoid overused and exaggerated expressions
Phrases like "hello, how are you?", "What are you doing?" and "what are you telling me?" they do not attract attention and are often ignored. Even weird and too silly comments can lead to the end of the conversation.
- Instead of saying "hello, how are you?", Try sending her a picture of yourself in a cowboy hat that says "hello".
- Try to keep your tone cheerful, interested, and friendly. For example, you could write "they will never catch me" when you send her a photo of a police patrol passing you.
Part 2 of 3: Continue the Conversation
Step 1. Bond on the things you have in common
It's easier to talk about the things you both like. Think about his hobbies, the activities he participates in, and his goals. All of these topics can become the basis for a conversation on Snapchat. Some of the areas you can explore include:
- Art
- Literature
- Music
- School
- Television
Step 2. Tell a story with your snaps
This is a way to make her feel involved in the messages you send her. For example, if there are a lot of people behind you in a hurry, you can pretend to run away from the crowd. Use snaps of your empty office with a wry caption ("busy office day") to pique her interest.
Show her how things change throughout the day. For example, you could take photos in the early hours of your shift, at lunchtime, and before you leave, to show her how busy you are
Step 3. Comment on her Snapchat stories
When you start hearing from each other, leave comments only from time to time. As the trade increases, do it more often. You don't have to be funny or unusual when you write. For example, if she posts a story while playing with her dog, you can say, "He's the loveliest dog I've ever seen."
Comments are the ideal medium for asking informal questions. If you notice that she has been to a concert, you can ask "Who was playing?". He will probably answer you and you can start talking about music
Step 4. Create conversation opportunities
Send her a snap whenever you hear your favorite song on the radio. That way, when she hears her, she'll snap you too and you'll talk more often. Here are some other occasions you can send a photo:
- Adorable animals
- Topics you both like (like cars, books, and food)
- Familiar places (such as classrooms and buildings)
- Familiar people (such as mutual friends)
Step 5. Don't be mad when your snaps are ignored
In general, people don't take snaps as seriously as messages or phone calls. For this, many photos are not displayed. If it happens to you too, don't take it personally. When you're busy, don't feel like you have to respond to snaps.
Part 3 of 3: Using the App Features and Respecting the Limits
Step 1. Add filters to your snaps for a comic and artistic effect
There are many audiovisual filters on Snapchat that can edit your photos. For example, you could use the fawn filter on a picture of yourself and write "I'm hungry. You?" To look even more adorable.
- You can access the filters from camera mode by holding your face and swiping left.
- Snapchat regularly releases new filters. Experiment with all the ones available to find your favorites.
Step 2. Use the streak to your advantage
By swapping photos daily, you will eventually create a streak. This is an automatic feature and as is the case with most Snapchat users, the girl will probably want to keep it active. This will give you even more opportunities to talk to her.
By gradually increasing the snap frequency, you can start a streak inconspicuously
Step 3. Respect its limits
Since Snapchat allows you to send videos, in some cases it is possible to go too far. Some people find that it is not strange to go around without a shirt, while for others it is a disrespect. Sending inappropriate messages on Snapchat can lead to termination of your account.
While not everyone thinks the same, it's usually considered rude to share private snaps in your Snapchat story
Step 4. Add links to your snaps
When making changes to the images, you should notice the paperclip icon on the right side of the screen. Press it and you can add links. Use them to insert memes, websites, jokes and more.
Links are ideal if you've just sent a girl a picture of something she'll want to buy. For example, you might include a link where she can buy the shoes you just sent her
Step 5. Surprise her with a funny voice
Speech filters can make your voice high-pitched and cute, grave and powerful, robotic, and much more. Access these filters by pressing the speaker icon in the lower left corner of the screen.
